Development Program Monitoring and Evaluation System Effectiveness
This book is a contribution to the building of a knowledge base for the effectiveness of MetE-Systems in the field of development management. The primary focus is to contribute to the clarification of what rigorous frameworks would apply to understand and meaningfully measure MetE-System effectiveness.
The book has the aim of translating outcomes from Dr. Ba's thesis research on MetE-System effectiveness into an actionable contribution to better reach development practitioners and managers. The book is mainly devoted to development managers and MetE experts who wish to find superior ways of managing MetE- Systems for improved decision-making and measured risk-taking in moving development policies and programs towards the greater freedom and welfare of people mainly in Africa.
The book focuses on MetE-System effectiveness and how it influences the dynamic capabilities of development organizations and institutions in managing development programs and projects. The book presents the challenges in seeking an effective MetE-System, examines the gaps and limits in assessing it, and finally proposes ways to rigorously measure its effectiveness. The book may also contribute to the scientific and professional discussions on what would be the meaningful framework to better understand the success factors that underlie an effective MetE-System and also how they help improve development management.
